Wrath of the Lich King
I just got home with my Wrath of the Lich King Collector’s Edition. There were only 30 people in line at EB Games when I got there at five to twelve. And my fears that I wouldn’t get a CE were unfounded, as they gave out at least a dozen before I got mine, and they still had a pile remaining. The manager even remembered me and had explicitly kept a copy in the back to make sure my copy wasn’t accidentally sold. I will definitely be giving them my business in the future. I’m happy to finally have a video game store with friendly staff who know what they are doing.
I was a bit startled when I heard one of the cashiers quoted one of the customers a bill over one thousand dollars. Turns out he purchased 24 copies of the game. I never did find out what all the copies were for. I did overhear them talking about his guild, so maybe he’s got a European based guild that needed US account keys.
There was the usual mocking from the more talkative PvP players in line. But, I’ll forgive the one player who had a 2400 arena rating. The person immediately behind me in line was a bit more friendly and we had a good conversation about the soundtrack and Left 4 Dead.
Anyhow, looks like the patch is almost done, so I better log in.
